What is worse than being the worst team in the world?
For Dave Richards that was a very easy but heartbreaking question to answer, a goalkeeper who performed poorly between the sticks, he was still available as a first-choice goalkeeper because Unique FC didn't have any other goalkeeper.

He was slow on his feet, couldn't jump properly and worst of all, he didn't know how to hold the ball properly.

The only way that Unique FC was able to survive taking in a massive goal-fest sometimes was because of the extra effort they put in their defence.

After a terrible match in which Dave wasn't able to make any saves and also made a lot of mistakes, he was seriously scolded by the managerial staff and almost received a beating from his angry teammates.

He got home sad and also angry at all those who told him he looked like his grandfather and would therefore inherit his goalkeeping skills.

He discovered a hidden door below his room and when he got down there the only thing he could see was a black box.

He found the box to be quite familiar and when he opened it the last thing he saw was a bright white light when the light was gone he could see something in his field of vision.

[ Welcome Dave ]

[ You have activated the Goalkeeping system ]

A female voice read out the messages.

This is a story about how an ordinary man who didn't know his place between the sticks went from nothing to pro and beyond that.

My Goalkeeping System

The trip to Frono didn't take that long as it took the goalkeeper approximately two hours to get there.


After stepping down from the airplane, he made his way outside and stopped beside the road to look around.


"Clark was with me last time, but this time, it's only me." He said as he slowly looked around the area.


For some reason, the sky at Frono always appeared to be brighter than the one at Unique FC.


'I didn't get to see this bright sky for a long time the  last time I was here.' He said subconsciously. 'I just hope I don't get a quest to walk to their company again.'


<What's the deal? It's just a quest, if you don't feel like doing it, then just ignore it>


'Yeah, but if the rewards for the quest are too good, I will be tempted to do it.'


'I should stop a cab fast before that quest pops up.'


As soon as he said that, he saw a cab going in the direction that he was going and quickly waved his hands to stop it.
